Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - Comparison of the proportion of PS-positive erythrocytes in patients with and without clinical risk of VTE. - Correlation of the proportion of PS positive red cells with parameters of thrombin information, thrombogenicity and inflammation. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
